Hi,

Have a similar plan but prefer staying in hotels after a day on the bike.
But maybe we can ride together for a couple of days.
What bike you have? Bit more details about your plan?

Hi Marcel,
Yes would be nice From time to time a hotel to recover is not bad.
I ride an old Africa twin. Start riding from Switzerland towards Greece across the countries in between as Croatia and Albania I have not such a detailed plan yet but after further to Hungary and Russia and I heard Georgia must be great for riding!
Where are you from?

Ken

Guys,

I will be travelling from the UK to Istanbul, then on to Georgia and Russia, returning via Belarus and eastern Europe next year. I only have 4 weeks of vacation from work, so not too much time sadly. Current schedule is to travel around May 2017.

Anyway, if there is any chance of meeting up with other people on the road, that would be great!

I have an F800ST and will be sticking to tarmac, not planning on camping as of now but that might change.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
